One night, the power went out, so the four decided to play the `Pen Spirit´ game. But in doing so, they broke two major rules of the game: they asked the `Pen Spirit´ how it died and forgot to send it away at the end.
(T/N; 笔仙; Bixian, the actual meaning in English is ´Pen Fairy, but the translator feels that the Fairy is identical to a visible creature that has positive energy and is often depicted with beautiful creatures, for example: Tinkerbell, etc. But in this story, looking at the storyline, this is a story about a spirit summoning game board or the same as OUIJA, with a lot of negative energy and dark vibe. So, the Translator will use the word 'Pen Spirit' instead of 'Pen Fairy´.)
They were warned that if they didn´t properly send off the `Pen Spirit´, it would haunt them relentlessly. This curse would only end with their destruction.
A mysterious old woman dressed in black, an eerie black cat, strange looks from their neighbors, lurking shadows, a landlord who lives in a cemetery, and haunting songs that play in the dead of night—all these leave the four trapped between nightmare and reality, on the verge of collapse.
Who has been possessed by the ´Pen Spirit´? How can they lift the curse? Behind the string of terrifying events, who—or what—is lurking in the shadows?
This novel has been made into a film with the title ´Death is Here´, directed by Guan Er. The film was released in all cinemas in China on June 8, 2012, and online playback platform: IQIYI.
